Recent weather variability in Spain
The last few days have brought a great diversity in weather conditions in the Iberian Peninsula, with rain affecting several regions, especially in the west of the country. This instability has been accompanied by temperature fluctuations and winds of variable intensity.
The arrival of the anticyclone
According to meteorological expert Jorge Rey, an anticyclone is expected to settle over the peninsula, causing a significant change in the climate. This will imply a decrease in active storms and, therefore, a notable reduction in precipitation, which will be limited mainly to Galicia and the Cantabrian Sea.
The imminent appearance of fog
With this stability provided by the anticyclone, Jorge Rey highlights a phenomenon that is familiar to many citizens: fog. These conditions will favor the formation of fog, especially in the Guadiana valley and in mountainous areas in the north, where visibility could be seriously affected.
Affects and expectations
This Thursday, fog is expected to spread inland, including the Ebro Valley, where it could become a persistent phenomenon. The presence of these humid conditions will cause gray days, with temperatures that will continue to fluctuate.
Forecasts for the next few days
As we head into the weekend, a slight increase in temperatures is expected in the northeast region, while the Balearic Islands will see a decrease. On Friday, a cold front will reach Galicia and the Cantabrian Sea, but the rest of the peninsula will enjoy stable weather.
Conditions for Sunday
Sunday will start with rain in the north, but the situation is expected to improve during the afternoon. Fog will continue to be present in the Ebro Valley, while maximum temperatures will decrease in the north and in the Canary Islands, but increase in the Mediterranean.
A change in weather trends
The installation of the anticyclone will mark a change in the meteorological dynamics, with a decrease in intense rains and the appearance of dense fogs in several areas of the interior. It remains to be seen whether this situation will remain in the long term or if precipitation will return in force in the coming days.
